Best Friends....

Hellofriends.....It has been such a long painful journey for me. Losing a parent is the hardest thing I have ever had to endure. I love God so much and know that he has a plan for each one of us, but it still has been very difficult. I miss creating and hope that you guys are still out there, this healing time was something I needed to do. I still have hard days with lots of tears, but everyday the pain gets a little less. I really feel like tragedies teach people a lot about who really cares about you in your life. It is so easy to walk with someone during the happy times, but one really finds out who their true friends are when the hard times happen. Unfortunely, I have experience this during my dad's death. The people I really thought would be here for me weren't. I am praying about the hurt I feel for those people as well and trying to except that I still need to keep pushing on, that maybe those people weren't really my friends anyway. I need to continue to keep my faith and be grateful for people that really love me. I am still a Christian, Wife, mother, daughter friend and a designer. So anyway I created today, it felt good to let all that energy out on something I love so much. This card was made with the sweet sweet Regina Easter's stamps from TheCuttingCafe's beautiful digital stamps. I am so grateful to her for being patient with me. She is a wonderful friend. The set I used is called Cute Critters. Thank you so much Friends for the prayers and understanding during this life changing experience. Tight Hugs...

Hi my sweet friend, I know you have been going thru a difficult time, and healing will take a lot of time. I lost my Dad 14 yrs. ago, but I am so blessed to still have my Mom with me at 83 yrs. old. It is so good to see you creating again, but I understand what you are going thru. Time will make it a little less painful, but the hurt will always be there. Keep the faith my friend. Hugs and prayers for you.

Adorable card, and crafting will help you, even though I know it is hard to concentrate, you gotta go on.
